First install windows in another partition than ubuntu. then run the ubuntu iso cd as Test Ubuntu. There install Boot repair. Instructions can be found here >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair Hit Recommended repair. Reboot. If everything went well you will have grub asking to choose from ubuntu or windows!!

Why do you want him to remove Ubuntu? There is absolutely no necessity of doing it. He can still install Windows without removing Ubuntu. Stop misguiding people. – Sachin S Kamath Jan 13 '15 at 11:44

Ubuntu Won'n Be removed. He'll install win8 on another partition.this won't affect ubuntu I'm asking him to reinstall grub on the Drive so he can dual boot. I've done it with excellent results and stop degrading answers – Aditya ultra Jan 13 '15 at 11:47

Then be specific. Don't just say "First install Windows", Answers are supposed to be specific. – Sachin S Kamath Jan 13 '15 at 11:50
